<sub>What is the "Photographer of the Week" feature?
Due to the massive upload rates in the galleries new and talented members of deviantART really have a hard time getting noticed. With this feature I want to give those members a head start and the exposure they deserve. That's why I only choose photographers with a relatively small number of pageviews (less or just above 1,000). If you want to apply for being featured yourself or suggest an artist for this feature please feel free to send me a note.

Please support the artists by -ing this news article if you like.</sub>



The first feature goes to ~swa1985 for his outstanding landscape photos and portraits:





~effendiyoe shows us Indonesia from a crooked point of view:





The film photography community on dA has a new member: ~briansun with some urban shots that show that film photography is by no means inferior to digital photography:





All right kiddies, if you see only placeholders with funny symbols instead of actual photos then just skip this feature. All the others make sure to check out the provocative portraits by ~victorguillen





Joined on August 26 and already uploaded a lot of eye candy--that's how you could describe ~FrozenStardust, who combines many photos into one. But would you have noticed?





I'm proud to present ~rachor-photography, who is not only from good ol' Germany but who is also one of the most brilliant portrait photographers I have ever seen:





The next one on our must-fave list is ~Alerize with his vibrant HDR images:





Landscape photos and portraits from Indonesia can be found in ~kickytheglow's gallery:





Another new deviant (joined on July 24th) with an outstanding gallery is ~pmsmgomes. His colorful photos speak for themselves:





HDR-cityscapes are the specialty of *dynopunk:





Another great cityscape photographer is ~smedly. He has only two photos in his gallery but in my opinion they are so great that I want to give him a major feature anyway:





~Sllyvain's gallery is full of grungy industrial shots and landscape images:





I can't believe how ~sg-photos can have only 600 pageviews although she has joined dA one year ago and her gallery is full of technically perfect portraits. Let's change that





*markh255 shows us New Zealand with some impressive photos:





=SilviaAK is a physician and therefore doesn't have much time to take and post photos. But when she does, she uploads the most beautiful nature photos. Let's surprise her next time when she logs in with lots of fave messages





Sad? ~damnittoby's photos will cheer you up again; I promise:





Let's give ~lecafecreme a warm welcome and her self-portraits lots of faves She joined dA on August 23rd:







Awe-inspiring Images by Unknown Photographers

_{With this feature I want to promote images by deviants who have less than 1,000 pageviews and who do not have enough images in their galleries for a POTW feature.}
